Drink Driving Solicitors

The services of drink driving solicitors are available to provide legal advice and assistance on drink driving. Drink driving solicitors are there to help if you have been caught drink driving by the police. Drivers who decide to drink and drive are putting their licences in danger and drink driving solicitors can provide you with free initial advice in respect of any drink driving offences you may have committed in an effort to try and retain your driving licence.

Drink driving solicitors see many cases from minor motor offences where you may be slightly over the legal limit or serious motor offences where you are over double the legal limit.

In any drink driving case, you should seek legal advice from your drink driving solicitor as the drink driving solicitors will be able to provide sound advice that most drivers will not be aware of.

You could find yourself in trouble with the police after one drink as the amount of alcohol that stays in your system depends on how quickly your body breaks down the alcohol therefore you may be over the legal limit without even realising.

You may still be over the legal limit in the morning even if you had your last drink many hours before. This is a common case that drink driving solicitors see where offenders have driven the next morning to travel to work, not realising they were still over the limit.

The amount of alcohol still in your body depends on the amount of units you drank the previous night and would depend on whether you had a substantial meal and whether you drank any non alcoholic drinks such as water or coffee during or after the drinking session.

Drink driving solicitors are aware that many drinkers do not fully understand how to stay within legal driving limit. Previous cases have shown that generally after a heavy drinking session ending at midnight could mean that you are still over the limit at 8am even up to midday and beyond depending on the amount of alcohol consumed the night before.

In order to be legal you should have allowed a sufficiently long enough period from the time of your last drink, until you drive again the next day of at least 8 to 12 hours.

If you are caught knowingly or unknowingly over the limit, contact drink driving solicitors for the best legal advice and legal help on the next steps and best options as drink driving solicitors could advise on how you could get away with a reduce fine, a place on the drink drivers rehabilitation course and possibly even an acquittal.
